Information needed about the version of Cloudfoundry's tomcat

I noticed that Cloudfoundry is using the 6.0.35 version of Tomcat by default.

I need the latest version of Tomcat (7.0.34) in order to be able to use Spring MVC 3.2 async support.

Can anyone please tell me when tomcat 7.0.34 will be available by default on cloudfoundry?

I don't know when Tomcat 7 will be available on CloudFoundry, but in the meantime you can bundle Tomcat 7 with your application and deploy it as a stand-alone application. There is an excellent blog post about doing exactly this here: http://blog.cloudfoundry.org/2012/06/18/deploying-tomcat-7-using-the-standalone-framework/.

Note that, if you do this, CloudFoundry will not automatically configure your app as a Spring app, since the "standalone" framework option does not do auto-reconfig. An answer to a previous question has the solution for this: https://stackoverflow.com/a/13632618/1299533.
